Anthony Boy Songtext

Anthony Boy Songtext
Eight o′clock in the morning
And I'm movin′ on out to school
With an open book and a sleepy look
The teacher can't be fooled
I catch a pass in an early class
The teacher will never know
That I postponed my work at home
Watching the evening show
Hey, there Anthony boy
Why you in such a rush?
The girl she wanna talk to you
Look at him he's a blush
Three o′clock in the afternoon
Completes a day of school
Before the ding can cease the ring
He′s in the vestibule
Betty and Barbara and Jeanie and Jane
Are yackity-yackin' with Joan
About some things that Anthony
Told her over the telephone
Hey, there Anthony boy
Why you in such a rush?
The girl she wanna talk to you
Look at him he′s a blush
Betty told me the secret
That I had told her not to tell
Now that you know she knows I know
You know that all is well
Come, come Tony me boy
Now don't let ′em get in your hair
With a good education you may
Become a multi-millionaire
Hey, there Anthony boy
Why you are in such a rush?
The girl she wanna talk to you
Look at him he's a blush
And I'm movin′ on out to school
With an open book and a sleepy look
The teacher can't be fooled
I catch a pass in an early class
The teacher will never know
That I postponed my work at home
Watching the evening show
Hey, there Anthony boy
Why you in such a rush?
The girl she wanna talk to you
Look at him he's a blush
Three o′clock in the afternoon
Completes a day of school
Before the ding can cease the ring
He′s in the vestibule
Betty and Barbara and Jeanie and Jane
Are yackity-yackin' with Joan
About some things that Anthony
Told her over the telephone
Hey, there Anthony boy
Why you in such a rush?
The girl she wanna talk to you
Look at him he′s a blush
Betty told me the secret
That I had told her not to tell
Now that you know she knows I know
You know that all is well
Come, come Tony me boy
Now don't let ′em get in your hair
With a good education you may
Become a multi-millionaire
Hey, there Anthony boy
Why you are in such a rush?
The girl she wanna talk to you
Look at him he's a blush
